A Mingle!

Who: YOU!!
When: Early Day 9 and onwards.
Where: A city corner!
What: WISHING WELL(s?)

At some point during the night a wishing well appeared in the corner, maybe it was a garbage can a second ago and you saw it blur, maybe it was a fire hydrant, maybe you just hadn't seen it before, but there it is!

There's a sign next to it reading:
"Toss a coin, make a wish!"
(WISHES NOT GUARANTEED TO COME TRUE)


Maybe you don't have a coin, but Coba's got your back; there's a pail full of coins next to the well.

So go on, make a wish. Or spy on other people making wishes (Or steal the coins). Surely nothing can possibly go wrong.

just to letcha know, slowish for a bit, gonna be cruisin' and hittin' my backlog. |3

[Probably not, but we all come from odd backgrounds. You look good for your age, by the way.]

Have you ever participated? Made a wish of your own?


[...well, looks like we got on the subject of wishes anyhow.]

Okay! Good luck with those!

[doesn't she, though]

No, I never have. I'm not really ever... sure what to wish for...

No? Not love, or friendship, or...more knowledge?

[And then there's that fond smile beamin' your way.]


But the Patchouli I know works for her knowledge. That's why she reads so much. She's very diligent.

Not that I would fault you if you made a wish like that.

[Well, she doesn't think much about love, and she felt she had friendship enough with Remi that she needn't wish for more. As for more knowledge...]

It's true that there's much I might want to wish to learn -- much that might not even be possible without a wish! But I would prefer to learn what I can without first.

[personal profile] darkshooter 2015-08-04 02:14 am (UTC)(link)


Mm. That way, you can be certain you've learned all you can. Diligent, [she says again, unambiguously reinforcing the same word from earlier.]

Though, I wonder...with as passionate as you can be about learning, how would you ever know when you've reached that limit? After all, if there's one certainty of the universe, it's that there is always more knowledge to be found.

That's because new knowledge is constantly born.


[I dunno, Noire, are you sure about that...?]

Um, yes, but... I'm sure Ill be able to figure out when that becomes unsustainable! I think...

[Her calm and eloquence is kind of falling apart under itself. She hasn't had to think about this ever before.]

Even if not... maybe I could just keep going, not knowing when I'll run out of things to learn and being happy for it.

Then there's no harm in the wish, is there? Still, perhaps that can be reserved for a time when you need the information quickly...

[It's a side of Patchouli she doesn't get to see that often. Noire won't tease her for it, though.]

I wouldn't worry too much. It's only a wish.

I suppose you're right.

What's the worst that could happen, right?
